I KEEP getting suspended
 

Dear aspkin,

In your ebay final guide to making a new account you stated that you can create an ebay account with a bogus address for the credit card address but just use the same city and state, but i've noticed that doesn't work anymore and you need to use the same zipcode only.

And i was wondering if they keep using my zipcode as a way to track my accounts down, because i keep getting suspended and im selling legit items, also i was wondering could they be suspending my accounts because i am using photobucket to directly embed pictures onto my auctions?

please reply back, anyone who has answers to my questions.

There's no way eBay can track you down by your Zip code. There are too many people using that same zip code to do so.

It's most likely something else, like using the same password between accounts, using Paypal for multiple accounts, forgetting to change your IP address or delete cookies, or a number of other reasons.

i agree what aspkin says... i m working on 4 accounts now.. one is just powerseller (the main account)

hey what do you mean using paypal for multiple accounts? i actually use different passwords for each account and i use the same paypal but different email address.

i really have no idea why ebay keeps tracking me, do you think think they are tracking me through the photo hosting website that i use?

hmm
 

so are you saying i shouldnt use the "same paypal" ?

Yes, things have changed. EBay and Paypal are linking accounts the moment someone pays your Paypal from eBay. They probably even share IP and cookie information now. But yes, using paypal for muliple accounts links those accounts now.

Read this thread: http://www.aspkin.com/forums/ebay-su...tter-what.html

so are you saying that if i use the same paypal to accept payments, if i make a new ebay account and i accept payments to the same paypal, my ebay account will automatically close?

if so than i will make a new paypal as well

The key I found out is..
 

Cookies ..use CCleaner everytime you go into Ebay..


EB;)

what is ccleaner?

do u have to pay ebay fees on any previous suspended accounts?

hmm
 

yeah i did but im not going to, im just going to cancel those credit cards

please aspkin, tell me if i really need to result to creating a new paypal account in order to have a stable ebay account. also if i do create a new paypal do you have a guide in creating a paypal account as well?

yes youneed to create a new paypal account.

through my research i have found out... if you donot pay your ebay fees on a suspended account that way your accociated paypal is BLACKLISTED, it is also clearly written on paypal policy that we share info if there is a need so there is your answer.. if you want to save your paypal.. do pay ebay its fees otherwise life gets really tough with paypal too.. i highly appreciate more views on my understanding

STAY AWAY FROM PAYPAL ALTOGETHER--PAYPAL IS NOT A VIABLE OPTION ANYMORE--YOU MUST USE A MERCHANT LIKE CCNOW OR ELECTRONIC TRANSFER INC, ETC FOR ALL YOUR EBAY TRANSACTIONS AND YOU WILL SLEEP BETTER AT NIGHT.

You have..
 

You have to accept Paypal to be able to list with new accounts now.

But still get a merchant account and get as many buyers to pay with that as possible.

Is this really true? If my paypal account got limited and my ebay account is less than 2 weeks old, I won't be able to sell with just a merchant account without also accepting paypal??

If your Ebay is account was made after Nov.20th, you do need to offer paypal

F.Y.I. Modee + I have over 40 accounts created Prior to Nov 20- all Grandfathered.. All setup with Auctiva accts, free landline phone numbers, the whole package.. (I personally know what they are capable of-- I used 2 of them the last 2 weeks- already each acct has generated over $8k)...
PM either of us for info

Is there no way around having to offer PayPal with a new eBay account?? I had every intention of not using PayPal at all (offering a Merchant Account and CCNow), but this has thrown a major glitch in the works.

if you need to accept paypal these days on a new account, then how can you get a round it, if i dont want to accept paypal as a method of payment is ccnow the answer or a bank account the answer or does paypal STILL have to be an option ???
